It's called the "Mid-Island," but it's actually just a bit more than a quarter of the way directly north from the south end (the Island is on a slant that goes from southeast to northwest, so measuring from south to north compresses the length of the Island a bit). Even though you didn't end up moving here, maybe you could make a trip to the Pacific Northwest sometime and find out what you traded for your life in the Shenandoah Valley.
Seeing your setup, Jim, I'm getting excited for the new desktop PC I ordered last week (it's supposed to be ready for pick-up by next Tuesday). Although the largest monitor I'll be using will be a mere 27" (with a 24" second screen), it'll be a giant step up from the 15" laptop I've been using for the past couple of years! It's also giving me a way to keep active with my photography without having to go outdoors in the cold winter weather. In order to learn the ins and outs of DXO PhotoLab and On1 PhotoRaw, as well as the powers of my new computer, I've decided to go back through the images I've taken with MFNG since we moved out to the West Coast in 2017 and process any good ones that I chose not to process immediately after shooting them.
For today's image post, I have a set of three infrared photos from Big Qualicum River, courtesy of my Fuji X-T2 with the permanently mounted Lens Turbo II and the 2.8 f/3.5 H. As I was processing it, the third one surprised me with its realistic faux colour....Show more →

I have a "big iron" workstation in my studio - 4k 27" & a regular 27" paired. My old version of Adobe products do not scale on 4K monitors like the new subscription versions, but the GUIs literally became one quarter the size. So I run the 4K monitor at 1920 x1080, and dragged Lightroom's develop sliders onto the left edge of the right-hand monitor - across the gap. I thought I would miss dual monitors, but I don't. I think the resistance to customizing the interface is a Steve Job's like control issue with Adobe. I did run the 4K monitor at spec for a few years using a self created manifest file to scale just Photoshop to 1920 x 1080, but dragging windows from one monitor to another was disconcerting. Plus you could literally lose a window in a non-visible area. Not fun to fix!

"Entering the Park" Very cold here with not much snow. Taken with the 300 f4.5 Ais (new to me). First trip out with it. Hand holding in single digits is a challenge. Thanks for looking.

Congrats Scott. Looks like you're off to a great start with it.
If I recall correctly you have an iPad too right? You could use that as a second monitor with your Mac.

3 to 4 feet away seems doable, but for now, I'll stick with my 4k 27" monitor.
Sounds like you have quite the setup there. Dual monitors would be helpful at times. I noticed that about LR back when I was using it and wondered the same thing. Have you seen others mention it? You would think it would be a really simple fix for the engineers at Adobe.
Some exciting news - we had our first grand daughter join the now four grandkid team. Must warn you about the portrait of me with Judith - this is what many years of sun, and burning the candle at both ends does to your face. 24mm f2.8 ais & the TC-16A

My candle burns at both ends;
It will not last the night;
But ah, my foes, and oh, my friends—
It gives a lovely light!

You should be able to do that by enabling your MBP as an Airplay Receiver and then Extend your other Mac to that via Screen Mirroring and use extended screen mode

Nope, no ipad. Could I use my MBP to do it?

I've determined that 27" at 1440 vertical is about all my eyes can handle, and 32" 4K monitors that would be great for photos are too expensive for me. So I make do with dual 27"s at 1440 vertical.
And, congrats James on the 4th grandchild and first granddaughter!
I don't think this is the train they use, possibly a restoration or back up but presumably identical to the one in service. (that one was behind the main station building connected to some carriages)
